| Comment | Couple of points.
* It's not a case of demanding *every single person* abandons their car for a bike/bus/train. Just that, it's very clearly the situation just now that too many journeys are made in single occupancy vehicles than is needed. It's about creating opportunities for people to have viable alternatives to driving, if they want to. Currently, those alternatives are few and far between.
* Our climate is fine. It's not Siberia. It rains a fair bit, it's windy now and then. But that's how it is in the Netherlands and Scandinavia. Why are we uniquely incapable of having nice, pleasant, livable neighbourhoods with pedestrianised areas, added room for outdoor hospitality, and cycle lanes? |
